I've finally "finished" Blue Prince. Every known thing in the game has been done. Needless to say, this quickly became my longest review yet.
This is a very, very special game.

And I've given it a full review! Brothership was a wonderful time. Excited to see where Acquire goes next with this side series, hopefully by 2028 or '29. Let's have the next one cook to perfection.

At last, I'm done Brothership. This game got shockingly hard compared to the rest of the series in its mandatory sections, usually they reserve the hard content for optional side modes with hefty rewards attached... but either way, a quite good game. It does overdue backtracking though lol

OOOOOKAY I was very wrong lmao
I forgot the classic "collect x maguffins" quest these games always have... but my goodness what a shift

I'm definitely feeling the end is upon me now that I've defeated / solved what appears to be every single sidequest and optional boss before entering the last dungeon in the middle of the map...
I do recall seeing a lot of complaints the game was too long, I can see it but don't agree honestly

I've seen an enormous amount of takes on the OOT style and as a whole I don't really know if I dislike it or like it, but I'll definitely give the team that it is DISTINCT and hyper-detailed. I firmly agree with the person I reposted earlier that they're aiming for Rococo... for better AND worse lol

Weird way to headline their main intent being Onimusha sold 1mil in a single week which is a TREMENDOUS accomplishment for a dormant IP
Capcom has said this before, very recently, and they emphasized Mega Man, Ace Attorney, and Devil May Cry. This was before they announced Dual Override, too...

Capcom is also focusing on “re-activating IPs that haven’t had a new title launch recently”
Capcom is not the only company which has a rich history when it comes to games and a vast back catalogue of fan favourites. The company has said in a recent report that it is currently looking to re-activate IPs which have not had a major new title in years. While the Japanese company wouldn't be drawn into revealing which franchises it intends to revisit, there's quite a few that come to mind.

So I'm playing a Mario game and I just delivered a package to a fellow working in an office under suspicious circumstances...
...you mean to tell me I delivered a shoddy stone carving of a woman with exaggerated bazongas in a Mario game??

This isn't a controversy, it's a moral barrier to entry. Either you tell Sega it's ok to use GenAI by purchasing this even if they removed it following backlash, or you don't buy the game and Sega's shareholders somehow conclude CT is not a popular series anymore if they're able to ignore the outcry
Gen-AI controversy aside, after 30 minutes with Crazy Taxi: World Tour, it feels like classic arcade Sega - and it's an absolute blast

Ok THREE I guess, can we actually get the right one next time or what
It is a HORRIBLE week to be 80 years old, oh my goodness. We really lost Dolly and Tim Curry on the same day of the year, one in the morning and one very late at night.

My review of PLvsAA is up! A fun experience I absolutely do not regret hesitating-upon, as it's served as a fun springboard into another franchise I am now confident I will come to enjoy.

At long, long last- I have played and completed every single Ace Attorney game. My last title was the Layton crossover, and I wrapped the final case tonight.
